Dear Esteemed Customer,


We at this bank wish to congratulate and inform you that after thorough review of your Inheritance/Contract funds transfer release documents in conjunction with the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund assessment report, your payment file was forwarded to us for immediate transfer of a part-payment US$5,800,000.00 to your designated bank account from their offshore account with us.

We therefore advice that you stop further communication with any correspondence outside this office since you do not have to pay any money or fee to receive your funds as you have met up with the whole funds transfer requirements.

The only thing required from you is to obtain the Non-Residential Clearance Form to enable us credit your account directly by telegraphic transfer or through any of our corresponding banks and send copies of the funds transfer release documents to you and your bankers for confirmation.

Should you follow our directives, your funds will be credited and reflect in your bank account within five (5) bank working days from the day you obtain this Non-Residential Clearance Form.

For further details and assistance on this Remittance Notification, you are kindly advice to forward the following information.

NOT LEGIT!

Okay here's why...

1st thing you notice is that they address you as "Esteemed Customer" not by your name, if they truly had $5.8 Million Dollars to give you, the least they would do is Address you by your name.

Next you have to understand that a lawyer or private detective who would normally contact you about an inheritance would never disclose the amount. They would contact you via a traceable method like Registered/Certified mail (here in the US), or by FedEX, something that has tracking and delivery confirmation, They use this method to ensure that you have received the notice of contact. They would explain in that notice, #1 your name, #2 Who the relative was, #3 they would give you an address and phone number to contact for more information. They would have you come in to a lawyers office to read over the will or probate papers and then maybe sign some documents.

Also, note the bottom of the message "Note: this message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by mail scammer's, and is believed to be true and clean." how can a virus scanner know that the message is "TRUE" that is simply there to make you feel oh this has been scanned and its okay. Reminder of how a virus scanner works, Virus is encountered, virus sent to some company like McAfee or TrendMicro, they test it and find a removal plan, they release a update to scan and catch. Which means that if the scanner knows its "TRUE" it has to have been reviewed many times? Hmmm... sounds fishy to me..

Just a Quick search on Google using "BARCLAYS BANK PAYMENT NOTIFICATION" will show many copies of the email

Is It Legit? NO!
